บท 217: The morning after

Clearing the leftover tears from my face covered with dry tears, I gently laid Anna on the bed behind the couch.

Covering mom and dad who were sleeping with their heads on each other's shoulders with the same face covered with dried tears but a calm smile, I looked to the other side.

Grandpa was the only one remaining awake, and grandma was sleeping with her head on his lap.

Alf and Carla were on the same bed as Anna, and I made sure to arrange them properly, even though the bed was quite large.

My two uncles and aunties were on different couches in the same room sleeping with the same calm smile as mom and dad.

Zoe was sitting beside the bed with Anna and others, calmly sitting with her eyes closed and thinking of the amazing time she had today and the things that happened.

I was awake, grandpa was awake and Rein was standing by the door with red eyes that had cried just as much as mine.
